What happens during prophase?

Biology

During prophase the mitotic spindle begins to form.

During prophase, the mitotic spindle starts to self-assemble in the cytoplasm. In contrast, all doubled homologous chromosomal pairs align along the cell's midline, between the two centrioles, during metaphase I. In anaphase, I, spindle fibers connected to the centrioles pull the homologous chromosome pairs apart and to the opposite poles of the cell.

In addition, the microtubules created by the duplicated centrosomes of animal cells are what combine to form the mitotic spindle. Also, chromatin, a combination of DNA and proteins found in the nucleus, condenses during prophase.

The development of discernible chromosomes is caused by the coiling and tightening of the chromatin. One well-organized piece of DNA makes up each chromosome.

In cattle, codominance of the allele for a red coat (R) and the allele for a white coat (W) results in offspring with a roan coa
mario62 [17]

Answer:

Genotype ratio: 1 (RR) : 2 (RW) : 1 (WW)

Phenotype ratio: 1 Red : 2 Roan : 1 White

Explanation:

Codominance is a kind of inheritance pattern in which both alleles are equally dominant in a gene. This means that both alleles when in a heterozygous state will be simultaneously expressed. According to this question, allele for a red coat (R) and the allele for a white coat (W) results in offspring with a roan coat (RW) in cattle.

Hence, in a cross between a a roan cow (RW) and a roan bull (RW), the following gametes will be produced: R and W.

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the offsprings with the following genotypes will be produced: RR, RW, RW, WW.

Therefore, based on the results of the cross;

Genotype ratio: 1 (RR) : 2 (RW) : 1 (WW)

Phenotype ratio: 1 Red : 2 Roan : 1 White

What characteristic of water causes water to stick to the side of a test tube?
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

The characteristic of water that makes this liquid stick to the side of a test tube is called capillarity (Claim).

Explanation:

Water (H₂O) is a polar molecule with the ability to generate van der Waals forces, which is explained by the 4 hydrogen bonds it forms to bind to other substances. The consequence of the forces of the molecular bonds are four properties of H₂O, including surface tension, cohesion, adhesion and capillarity.

- <u>Claim</u>: The characteristic of water that makes this liquid stick to the side of a test tube is called capillarity.

- <u>Evidence</u>: Cohesion and adhesion of water are properties that come from the forces of the molecular bonds of water, and whose effect is the ability of water to wet surfaces and adhere to a tube that contains it, the latter due to capillarity. Capillarity also allows water to rise through the roots and stems of plants, through their thin vascular ducts.

- <u>Reasoning</u>: <u>cohesion</u> in water depends on the force of attraction between H₂O molecules, <u>adhesion</u> is the capacity of H₂O molecules to join other different molecules and —together with <u>surface tension</u>— make H₂O molecules close to the walls of a glass tube adhere to it, which represents capillarity.

The effect of capillarity is more evident when the test tube is of a smaller diameter, although capillarity and adhesion to its walls always exist, and to a greater degree than any other substance.

What will be the effects if asteroid or comet hits the earth
AURORKA [14]

If the comet were to strike the planet, the impact energy would be about 300 times that of the asteroid collision that was thought to have caused the Cretaceous-Tertiary extinction that killed the dinosaurs about 65 million years ago.
